by someone on the C+ web forum.It was all good fun. But I was struck by how this new generation of
internet users have almost no knowledge of usenet.
True. New Internet users are not now introduced to Usenet, and when they
do try it it looks clunky and old fashioned to them. Of course, it is
clunky and old fashioned - but it also works extremely well, and I
honestly don't know of any 'web forum' system which works (and scales)
anything like as well.
So, frankly, I'm happy to remain a dinosaur.
